Predation of Nabis punctipennis on Acyrthosiphon pisum in the presence of the alternative prey Aphis craccivora in alfalfa

ABSTRACT The feeding behavior of the generalist predator Nabis punctipennis Blanchard (Nabidae) on Acyrthosiphon pisum Harris (Aphididae), two hemipterans common in alfalfa in Chile, was studied in a laboratory experiment using A. pisum, and Aphis craccivora Koch (Aphididae) as alternative prey, whi...
